RE: From a slave to a master, chapter # 11 - The Dualistic Structure of relationships, part III
Great walkthrough from how relationship starts. How important it is for woman to be chased. How sides can all of the sudden reverse. How things change in man’s mind when he finally gets married... For whatever reason it reminds me this pair of red cardinals. They are coming to our backyard for about 5 years almost every single day. They got really used to us. They almost eat from our hands.
The male cares so much for his female every single time for 5 years. He feeds her, she usually doesn’t take food herself, she always waits for him to feed her. You can literally feel how happy they are together. It seems so natural. They are known to stay together forever. At some point humans are the same and different. Women has expectations from man and man understand her expectations and is happy to meet her it. Like it or not, women always feels the need to be treated like a princess, to feel protected. Once women loses this need from her partner and at the same time he looses the need to treat her like a princess there might be something wrong. Their life may become miserable if the stay together. Inspite of their expectations, I don’t thing child would change anything. It’s only temporarily fix. It may get even worse. Nature always wins. My point is, I don’t believe in third party intervention. In majority cases it’s only temporary fix. If they can’t fix it themself, no one can.
The prominent one of those concerns is that the marriage might only destroy the beautiful communion they have managed to build so far.
I believe, if they are meant for each other marriage won’t make it worst, it will only help them. And that’s my opinion when it comes to most cases. Of course there are few exceptions where women is the dominant one.
I would argue that when both lose the need their relationship will grow to a new level. A stage of conscious choice. "I am with you because I choose to be with you, not because I need you". Of course, this attitude contradicts the very nature of the dualitsim in relatiobships.
